A Gentleman (1st)
“ये हि केचि, भिक्खवे, अतीतमद्धानं कुलपुत्ता सम्मा अगारस्मा अनगारियं पब्बजिंसु, सब्बे ते चतुन्नं अरियसच्चानं यथाभूतं अभिसमयाय। ये हि केचि, भिक्खवे, अनागतमद्धानं कुलपुत्ता सम्मा अगारस्मा अनगारियं पब्बजिस्सन्ति, सब्बे ते चतुन्नं अरियसच्चानं यथाभूतं अभिसमयाय। ये हि केचि, भिक्खवे, एतरहि कुलपुत्ता सम्मा अगारस्मा अनगारियं पब्बजन्ति, सब्बे ते चतुन्नं अरियसच्चानं यथाभूतं अभिसमयाय।
“Ye hi keci, bhikkhave, atītamaddhānaṁ kulaputtā sammā agārasmā anagāriyaṁ pabbajiṁsu, sabbe te catunnaṁ ariyasaccānaṁ yathābhūtaṁ abhisamayāya. Ye hi keci, bhikkhave, anāgatamaddhānaṁ kulaputtā sammā agārasmā anagāriyaṁ pabbajissanti, sabbe te catunnaṁ ariyasaccānaṁ yathābhūtaṁ abhisamayāya. Ye hi keci, bhikkhave, etarahi kulaputtā sammā agārasmā anagāriyaṁ pabbajanti, sabbe te catunnaṁ ariyasaccānaṁ yathābhūtaṁ abhisamayāya.
“Bhikkhus, whatever gentlemen—past, future, or present—rightly go forth from the lay life to homelessness, all of them do so in order to truly comprehend the four noble truths.
कतमेसं चतुन्नं? दुक्खस्स अरियसच्चस्स दुक्खसमुदयस्स अरियसच्चस्स दुक्खनिरोधस्स अरियसच्चस्स दुक्खनिरोधगामिनिया पटिपदाय अरियसच्चस्स। ये हि केचि, भिक्खवे, अतीतमद्धानं कुलपुत्ता सम्मा अगारस्मा अनगारियं पब्बजिंसु …पे… पब्बजिस्सन्ति …पे… पब्बजन्ति, सब्बे ते इमेसंयेव चतुन्नं अरियसच्चानं यथाभूतं अभिसमयाय।
Katamesaṁ catunnaṁ? Dukkhassa ariyasaccassa dukkhasamudayassa ariyasaccassa dukkhanirodhassa ariyasaccassa dukkhanirodhagāminiyā paṭipadāya ariyasaccassa. Ye hi keci, bhikkhave, atītamaddhānaṁ kulaputtā sammā agārasmā anagāriyaṁ pabbajiṁsu …pe… pabbajissanti …pe… pabbajanti, sabbe te imesaṁyeva catunnaṁ ariyasaccānaṁ yathābhūtaṁ abhisamayāya.
What four? The noble truths of suffering, the origin of suffering, the cessation of suffering, and the practice that leads to the cessation of suffering. Whatever gentlemen—past, future, or present—rightly go forth from the lay life to homelessness, all of them do so in order to truly comprehend the four noble truths.
तस्मातिह, भिक्खवे, ‘इदं दुक्खन्ऽति योगो करणीयो, ‘अयं दुक्खसमुदयोऽति योगो करणीयो, ‘अयं दुक्खनिरोधोऽति योगो करणीयो, ‘अयं दुक्खनिरोधगामिनी पटिपदाऽति योगो करणीयो”ति।
Tasmātiha, bhikkhave, ‘idaṁ dukkhan’ti yogo karaṇīyo, ‘ayaṁ dukkhasamudayo’ti yogo karaṇīyo, ‘ayaṁ dukkhanirodho’ti yogo karaṇīyo, ‘ayaṁ dukkhanirodhagāminī paṭipadā’ti yogo karaṇīyo”ti.
That’s why you should practice meditation to understand: ‘This is suffering’ … ‘This is the origin of suffering’ … ‘This is the cessation of suffering’ … ‘This is the practice that leads to the cessation of suffering’.”
ततियं।
Tatiyaṁ.
